Pneumococcal infection is caused by the bacterium Streptococcus pneumonia, which can cause a range of infections, from mild ear infections and sinusitis to more severe infections such as pneumonia, meningitis, and sepsis.

Pneumococcal infection is spread through contact with respiratory secretions, such as saliva or mucus, from an infected person. The infection can affect people of all ages, but it is more common and more severe in young children, older adults, and people with weakened immune systems.

Symptoms of pneumococcal infection depend on the site of the infection but can include fever, cough, chest pain, shortness of breath, headache, stiff neck, confusion, and sensitivity to light.

Pneumococcal infection can be diagnosed through laboratory tests to detect the presence of the bacterium in blood or other body fluids.
